I think I've seen such strange design on other platforms, level
interrupt for HPD, which needs to be disabled via disable_irq().

You seem to have two kinds of scenarios when talking to MHDP: just
cdns_mhdp_mailbox_send(), no response needed and then the
cdns_mhdp_mailbox_send() / cdns_mhdp_mailbox_recv_header() /
cdns_mhdp_mailbox_recv_data() sequence. Extract those + the mutex
access to separate functions, add a mutex to those sequences and use
them as a high-level API for your HDMI and PHY drivers.
Adding mutexes around phy_foo() calls doesn't look like a proper
solution _at_ _all_.

+1, please extract this code as a helper. You can even submit it
separately, reworking sun4i and vc4 to use a new helper.
